Common portable electronic devices include tablet PCs, smart phones, and Notebook computer, etc. Taking a notebook computer as an example, a typical notebook computer is mostly composed of a host computer and a display screen, wherein the host computer and the display screen are pivotally connected to each other through a hinge structure. The user can close the mainframe and display screen of the notebook computer by the relative rotation of the host computer and the display screen for convenient carrying. When the notebook computer is to be used, the display screen is expanded to facilitate operation.
許多筆記型電腦的樞軸結構設有扭力組件,以使樞軸結構具有足夠的扭力來固定顯示螢幕的展開角度。為了確實地固定顯示螢幕的展開角度,扭力組件需提供足夠大的扭力,然而此舉導致使用者調整顯示螢幕之展開角度時較為費力,甚至需要將主機壓住才能順利地扳動顯示螢幕,使筆記型電腦的操作較為不便。 The pivoting structure of many notebook computers is provided with a torsion assembly so that the pivot structure has sufficient torque to fix the deployment angle of the display screen. In order to reliably fix the deployment angle of the display screen, the torque component needs to provide sufficient torque. However, this causes the user to adjust the display angle of the display screen more laboriously, and even needs to press the main body to smoothly pull the display screen. The operation of the notebook is inconvenient.
本發明提供一種樞軸結構,可使電子裝置之機體的展開角度易於調整,且可穩固地固定機體的位置。 The invention provides a pivot structure, which can easily adjust the deployment angle of the body of the electronic device and can stably fix the position of the body.

FIG. Fig. 3A is an exploded view of the slider and the rotating shaft of Fig. 2; 4 is a top plan view of a portion of the pivot module of FIG. 3A. Referring to FIG. 2 , FIG. 3A and FIG. 4 , the pivot module 130 includes a sliding member 132 , a rotating shaft 134 and a positioning member 136 . The slider 132 is slidably disposed on the first body 110 in the sliding direction D1 and has a first engaging portion 132a. The rotating shaft 134 is fixed to the second body 120 and pivotally connected to the first body 110 along the rotating axial direction A. The rotating shaft 134 has a second engaging portion 134a. The first engaging portion 132a is, for example, a rack, and the second engaging portion 134a is, for example. The gear is meshed with the first engaging portion 132a. Positioning member 136 (shown in Figure 4) along The moving direction D2 is movably disposed in the first body 110. The sliding direction D1 is, for example, perpendicular to the rotational axis A, and the moving direction D2 is, for example, parallel to the rotational axis A.
圖3B是本發明另一實施例的滑動件及轉軸的分解圖。在圖3A中,轉軸134上設有支撐件134b及固定件134c,支撐件134b用以支撐轉軸134,固定件134c用以固定於第一機體110(繪示於圖1及圖2)。在圖3B所示的實施例中,轉軸134可不具有上述支撐件134b及固定件134c,支撐件134b及固定件134c可改為設置於第一機體110上,本發明不對此加以限制。 Fig. 3B is an exploded view of the slider and the rotating shaft according to another embodiment of the present invention. In FIG. 3A, the rotating shaft 134 is provided with a supporting member 134b for supporting the rotating shaft 134, and a fixing member 134c for fixing to the first body 110 (shown in FIGS. 1 and 2). In the embodiment shown in FIG. 3B, the rotating shaft 134 may not have the support member 134b and the fixing member 134c. The supporting member 134b and the fixing member 134c may be disposed on the first body 110 instead of the present invention.
圖5A及圖5B是圖4的樞軸模組的作動示意圖。當定位件136如圖4所示位於一第一位置P1而抵頂於滑動件132時,定位件136阻止滑動件132滑動且轉軸134藉由第一嚙合部132a與第二嚙合部134a之間的結構性干涉而被定位。當定位件136如圖5A所示沿移動方向D2移至第二位置P2而遠離滑動件132時,定位件136釋放滑動件132且轉軸134能夠沿轉動軸向A相對於第一機體110(繪示於圖1及圖2)樞轉而如圖5B所示藉由第二嚙合部134a帶動滑動件132沿滑動方向D1滑動,並使第二機體120隨著轉軸134的樞轉而相對於第一機體110展開或閉合。 5A and 5B are schematic views of the operation of the pivot module of Fig. 4. When the positioning member 136 is located at a first position P1 as shown in FIG. 4 and abuts against the sliding member 132, the positioning member 136 prevents the sliding member 132 from sliding and the rotating shaft 134 is between the first engaging portion 132a and the second engaging portion 134a. The structural interference is positioned. When the positioning member 136 moves to the second position P2 in the moving direction D2 as shown in FIG. 5A and away from the sliding member 132, the positioning member 136 releases the sliding member 132 and the rotating shaft 134 can be opposite to the first body 110 along the rotating axial direction A (painting 1 and 2) pivoting, as shown in FIG. 5B, the sliding member 132 is slid in the sliding direction D1 by the second engaging portion 134a, and the second body 120 is rotated relative to the rotating shaft 134. A body 110 is deployed or closed.
在上述配置方式之下,使用者可驅動定位件136釋放滑動件132以使滑動件132及轉軸134能夠自由地作動,讓第二機體120之展開角度隨著轉軸134的樞轉而輕易地被調整。當使用者欲固定第二機體120之展開角度時,可驅動定位件136定位滑 動件132以阻止滑動件132與轉軸134進行作動,進而穩固地固定第二機體120的位置。據此,樞軸模組130不需藉由扭力組件提供的扭力來固定第二機體120,如此可避免第二機體120因扭力組件提供的扭力過大而難以被扳動,以提升電子裝置100操作上的便利性。 Under the above configuration, the user can drive the positioning member 136 to release the sliding member 132 to enable the sliding member 132 and the rotating shaft 134 to be freely actuated, so that the deployment angle of the second body 120 is easily changed by the pivoting of the rotating shaft 134. Adjustment. When the user wants to fix the deployment angle of the second body 120, the positioning member 136 can be driven to slide. The movable member 132 prevents the slider 132 from rotating with the rotating shaft 134, thereby firmly fixing the position of the second body 120. Accordingly, the pivot module 130 does not need to be fixed by the torque provided by the torque component to fix the second body 120. Therefore, the second body 120 can be prevented from being pulled by the torque provided by the torque component, so as to improve the operation of the electronic device 100. Convenience.

The positioning member 136 has a concave portion 136a. The convex portion 138a of the actuator 138 extends into the concave portion 136a of the positioning member 136 to be adapted to drive the positioning member 136 to rotate. The portion 138a is, for example, a non-cylindrical body and the concave portion 136a is, for example, a non-circular hole having a shape corresponding to the non-cylindrical body, so that the convex portion 138a can drive the positioning member 136 to rotate. In addition, the convex portion 138a of the actuator 138 and the concave portion 136a of the positioning member 136 are designed to be relatively displaceable in the moving direction D2, and when the positioning member 136 is rotated by the convex portion 138a to guide When the guide thread 139a is guided to move in the moving direction D2, the convex portion 138a and the concave portion 136a are relatively moved in the moving direction D2 to allow the overall structure to be smoothly operated.

The elastic portion 136b is positioned to interfere with the structural interference between the third engaging portion 132b of the slider 132.
圖7是本發明另一實施例的滑動件及定位件的局部示意圖。圖7所示之實施例與圖4所示之實施例的不同處在於,定位件236不具有彈性部而具有第四嚙合部236c。當定位件236位於第一位置P1’而抵頂滑動件232時,定位件236的第四嚙合部236c嚙合於滑動件232的第三嚙合部232b,以使滑動件232藉由定位件236之第四嚙合部236c與滑動件232之第三嚙合部232b之間的結構性干涉而被定位。 Figure 7 is a partial schematic view of a slider and a positioning member according to another embodiment of the present invention. The embodiment shown in Fig. 7 differs from the embodiment shown in Fig. 4 in that the positioning member 236 does not have an elastic portion and has a fourth engaging portion 236c. When the positioning member 236 is located at the first position P1 ′ and abuts against the sliding member 232 , the fourth engaging portion 236 c of the positioning member 236 is engaged with the third engaging portion 232 b of the sliding member 232 , so that the sliding member 232 is disposed by the positioning member 236 . The fourth engaging portion 236c is positioned to interfere with the structural interference between the third engaging portion 232b of the slider 232.
綜上所述,在本發明的樞軸模組中,滑動件之第一嚙合部與轉軸之第二嚙合部相互嚙合,且定位件適於移動而定位滑動件或釋放滑動件。使用者可藉由致動器驅動定位件釋放滑動件以 使滑動件及轉軸能夠自由地作動,讓第二機體之展開角度隨著轉軸的樞轉而輕易地被調整。當使用者欲固定第二機體之展開角度時,可藉由致動器驅動定位件定位滑動件以阻止滑動件與轉軸進行作動,進而穩固地固定第二機體的位置。據此,樞軸模組不需藉由扭力組件提供的扭力來固定第二機體,如此可避免第二機體因扭力組件提供的扭力過大而難以被扳動,以提升電子裝置操作上的便利性。 In summary, in the pivot module of the present invention, the first engaging portion of the sliding member and the second engaging portion of the rotating shaft are engaged with each other, and the positioning member is adapted to move to position the sliding member or release the sliding member. The user can drive the positioning member to release the slider by the actuator. The slider and the rotating shaft can be freely actuated, so that the deployment angle of the second body is easily adjusted as the pivoting of the rotating shaft. When the user wants to fix the deployment angle of the second body, the slider can be driven by the actuator to position the slider to prevent the slider from acting with the rotating shaft, thereby firmly fixing the position of the second body. Accordingly, the pivot module does not need to be fixed by the torque provided by the torque component to fix the second body, so that the second body can be prevented from being pulled by the torque provided by the torque component, so as to improve the operation convenience of the electronic device. .
